Pope 'Rehabilitates' British Bishop Holocaust Denier

To the chagrin of Jews worldwide, the Pope on Saturday lifted the excommunication ban of a British bishop who is a Holocaust denier. The bishop, Richard Williamson, is one of four bishops rehabilitated Saturday after being thrown out of the Catholic Church 20 years ago because of their refusal to accept changes in Catholic doctrine.

Williamson has several times in the past said that he doesn't believe that six million Jews were killed in the Holocaust. In his latest comments to Swedish interviewers last week, he said "I believe there were no gas chambers." The maximum number of Jews killed in the Holocaust was 300,000, he said. "Between 200,000-300,000 perished in Nazi concentration camps, but not one of them by gassing in a gas chamber," he said, adding "I believe that the historical evidence is hugely against 6 million having been deliberately gassed in gas chambers as a deliberate policy of Adolf Hitler."

In a report, Reuters quoted Mordechai Lewy, Israel's ambassador to the Vatican, as saying that Israel "has no intention of interfering in the internal workings of the Catholic Church. However, the eagerness to bring a Holocaust denier back into the Church will cast a shadow on relations between Jews and the Catholic Church."

A Vatican spokesman said that the lifting of the ban had nothing to do with Williamson's views. "It has nothing to do with the personal opinions of a person, which are open to criticism, but are not pertinent to this decree."

Papal response: Vatican compares Gaza to Nazi cam

The pope's minister for peace and justice was accused yesterday of speaking like a Holocaust denier after comparing Gaza to a "big concentration camp".

Cardinal Renato Martino, a veteran Vatican diplomat with years of experience as the Pope's delegate to the United Nations, told an interviewer for L'Avvenire, the daily paper of the Italian bishops, that "nobody" in the Israel-Hamas dispute "sees the interests of the other, but only their own". He continued: "But the consequences of egoism are hatred for the other, poverty and injustice. The ones who pay are always the defenceless populations. Look at the conditions in Gaza: more and more it resembles a big concentration camp."

He added that "both sides" were to blame for the dispute and must be separated like feuding brothers. "The world cannot just look on, doing nothing," said Cardinal Martino. His comments were later echoed by Pope Benedict XVI, who said "the military option is not a solution and violence from whichever side must be firmly condemned".

But Israel and its supporters reacted angrily to the cardinal's implied comparison of Gaza to the concentration camps of Nazi Germany. "We are astounded to hear from a spiritual dignitary words that are so far removed from truth and dignity," said Yigal Palmor, a Foreign Ministry spokesman.

Rabbi Marvin Hier, dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Centre, went further, saying such comments "are only used against Israel by terrorist organisations and Holocaust deniers".

The row cast doubt on the Pope's tentative plan to visit the Holy Land in May.

Am Yisrael wants the Temple rebuilt!

A survey conducted by the Panels Insitute revealed that 64 % of the Israeli public , and half of secular Israelis, want the Temple rebuilt. 97% of respondents know that the Temple was destroyed on Tisha B'Av ( Ninth of Av).

The survey's second question queried the public’s desire to rebuild the Temple. Sixty-four percent responded favorably and 36 percent said no. Analysis of the answers revealed that not only hareidi-religious and other religious Jews want to rebuild the Temple, (100 percent and 97 percent respectively), but also the traditional public (91 percent) and many secular Jews (47 percent) do as well.

Just a reminder to our many enemies, specially 'you know who' (below ), from Isaiah the Prophet:

Isaiah 49:24-26

"Can prey be taken back from a strong one; can the righteous captive escape?

But thus said Hashem: Even the captive of the strong can be taken back, and the prey of the mighty can escape; I, Myself, will take up your cause, and I, MYSELF, WILL SAVE YOUR CHILDREN.

And I will feed your oppressors their own flesh, and as with sweet wine shall they become drunk; then all flesh shall know that I am Hashem, your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Israel."

Words of wisdom: what to do to save lives and preserve freedom of the Jewish People in Israel:

... Coming from a traditionally very passive and peaceful sector, United Torah Judaism:

"There was no reason for [the mother] to be in jail... Now we all understand that these things can be stopped by burning garbage and ripping out traffic lights”

MK Meir Porush, UTJ - about the riots in Jerusalem

A word of wisdom...coming from what was once the Land of the Free...

"It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds."Samuel Adams, American Revolutionary

Very appropriate quote , although more than a century old.

"There are laws to protect the freedom of the press's speech,

but none that are worth anything to protect the people from the press."

--Mark Twain

... And more truths about truth:

"A really efficient totalitarian state would be one in which the all-powerful executive of political bosses and their army of managers control a population of slaves who do not have to be coerced, because they love their servitude.

To make them love it is the task assigned, in present-day totalitarian states, to ministries of propaganda, newspaper editors and schoolteachers.... The greatest triumphs of propaganda have been accomplished, not by doing something, but by refraining from doing.

Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth."

"When a well-packaged web of lies has been sold gradually to the masses over generations, the truth will seem utterly preposterous and its speaker a raving lunatic."Dresden James.

We live in times of unprecedented dangers, therefore,

"Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing, because he could only do a little."

PICTORIAL REVIEW OF WHAT REALLY HAPPENED IN GUSH KATIF

Here below, you will be able to see for yourselves what REALLY happened during the Gush Katif expulsion; how the GOOD JEWS of ISRAEL were BETRAYED by their so-called leaders.

Link provided by Barry Chamish.

Now you understand whom we are dealing with in this country: TRAITORS. They pretend to have the nation's best interests at heart, but this is all a mirage, a lie; either they are self-serving, or THEY WORK FOR THE ENEMY, and they cannot be trusted.

Only TRUE and FAITHFUL LEADERSHIP will get us out of this morass; AND G-D'S INFINITE MERCY, B"H.

We are waiting for Mashiach to come and rescue us; meanwhile, we do what we can to HELP THE GEULAH.

QUOTES BY THE ENEMY, AND ABOUT THE ENEMY'S TACTICS

Here below are quotes related to the enemy's nature, tactics and philosophy.

Always remember: LEARN FROM YOUR ENEMY, EMULATE HIM, but for the FORCES OF GOOD!

Whenever he does A, do A, in reverse.

He does B, do B, in reverse.

We might not have his financial resources or capabilities, but we have a much greater ally: HASHEM.

Remember David and Goliath. We are David, and with God's help, we can defeat Goliath. All we have to do is UNMASK THE EVIL GIANT, UNMASK HIS TACTICS, UNDERSTAND HIS DECEPTIONS, AND EXPOSE THEM TO THE BRIGHT LIGHT OF DAY.

AND PRAY TO GOD FOR HELP.

AND ALWAYS, ONLY STRIVE TO DO GOOD,

SO THAT WE CAN BE A FORCE OF GOOD AGAINST THESE MESSENGERS OF DARKNESS.

"PROPAGANDA CANNOT TAKE TIME OFF"

"Propaganda cannot take time off"

... one of the key rules ofmodern disinformation, which is that the required message must be repeated very frequently if it is to pass...

THE STATE IS THE ENEMY!

"You had to attack civilians, the people, women, children, innocent people, unknown people far removed from any political game. The reason was quite simple. They were supposed to force these people, the ... public, to turn to the state to ask for greater security.

This is the political logic which remains behind all the massacres and the bombings which remain unpunished, because the state cannot convict itself or declare itself responsible for what happened."

THE DARK SIDE OF THE U.S.A.: AS IN SERBIA, SO IN YESHA...

... in 1998, the US State Department and intelligence agencies decided to use the Kosovo Liberation Army to get rid of Slobodan Miloševic. "The US agenda was clear. When the time was right they were going to use the KLA to provide the solution to the political problem" – the "problem" being, as Marshall explains earlier, Miloševic’s continued political survival. This meant supporting the KLA’s terrorist secessionism, and later fighting a war against Yugoslavia on its side. Marshall quotes Mark Kirk, a US naval intelligence officer, saying that, "Eventually we opened up a huge operation against Miloševic, both secret and open." The secret part of the operation involved not only things like stuffing the various observer missions which were sent into Kosovo with officers from the British and American intelligence services, but also – crucially – giving military, technical, financial, logistical and political support to the KLA, which, as Marshall himself admits, "smuggled drugs, ran prostitution rackets and murdered civilians.""Bags of money had been brought in for years....Organisations controlled by George Soros also played a crucial role, as they were later to do, in 2003–4, in Georgia....The so-called "democrats" were, in reality, nothing but foreign agents."

I am a Jew living in the Land of Judea (Eretz Yehuda), which was given to us, the Jewish people, by G-D Himself. I love this place very much; I will do my best to develop it, cherish it, protect it, turn it into the paradise it was always meant to be - and defend it against any and all enemies of Am Yisrael.
